Wii Mini Rumored

The small is getting smaller.

According to NintendoWorldReport, a Wii Mini is planned for launch sometime next month. The website received an internal memo from a retailer chain, which claims that Nintendo is going to release a smaller version of the Wii console on December 7.

Let's speculate for a mintue. At 44mm wide, 157mm tall, and 215.4mm deep, the Wii is one of the, if not the smallest home console to date. How could Nintendo possibly make it any smaller? One possible option would be remove the DVD-ROM entirely, and make it an Internet-only device, with Nintendo's eShop being the center of entertainment for gamers to get their games and what not.
